Dana Burkey, Grad. Asst.

I am thankful for my family who instilled in me a passionate heart for Christ, the world, and God’s people everywhere. My dad, Richard Burkey and my mom, Sharon Burkey lived in Arkansas with my older sister, Laura. After four years they moved to Florida and I came into the picture! After eight years my dad received a call to a church in San Diego, our home for the past 15 years! When we’re together we love to eat my mom’s home cooking, hike the cliffs of Torrey Pines, and challenge each other at Wii Tennis. Their support and prayers while I am traveling around the world will be a constant encouragement for me. I am so excited to travel to 10 different countries to see how God is working around the world and can’t wait to share all of the stories with them.

Hi Dana, I am following you around the world! So proud of you and excited for your dream to come true! I am praying for you! Remember that “There is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.” Rely on Him first! He is your best friend!
He is crazy about you! Patra
